Activist Brittany ‘Bree’ Newsome recently climbed the flag pole at the South Carolina Statehouse and removed the historic symbol of White Supremacy. She along with colleague James Ian Tyson were promptly arrested.

At a recent press conference, South Carolina governor, Nikki Haley was in concurrence that the flag should be removed.Â However, in order for the official removal process to take place, it must be approved by two-thirds majorities in both chambers of the South Carolina Legislature.
